A "Small World" Moment
The other day I was over at Pyromaniac's blog, and left a comment on a post there. A while later I went back, and someone had posted under my comment. I followed the links to his site, and read one of his most recent posts, where he mentioned that he had just gotten engaged to a Brazilian girl. As all readers of this blog know, the subject of marrying a Brazilian is near and dear to my heart, and so I left a little congratulatory note for the happy couple.
Imagine my surprise today at getting an e-mail from the owner of the blog, informing me that his fiancée is a young lady I met at the Shepherd's Conference last March. I remember walking into the bookstore at Grace Community Church and asking the girl at the counter if they had any materials in Portuguese. As it turned out, I was talking to the only Brazilian "resource" in the store!
It is indeed a small, small world. Parabens, Matthew e Elsiene, e que Deus lhes abençoe com muitos anos de felicidade!

Hi Andrew,
I guess this would be another small world moment. You were noted on the blogosphere of Pyromaniac. Talk about small world--there was your name on Phil's blog. Happy blogging. More importantly, we rejoice that you are heading to Brazil very soon. Brian
